Farfisa Syntorchestra 4

Post by MyC » Sun May 17, 2009 9:25 pm

Hi,

Has anyone come across a Farfisa Syntorchestra 4?

Not a lot of info about them floating around. Anyone know the differences from the plain old Syntorchestra? better/worse? rarer/more common?

Thanks.

(This be my first post, btw.)

Afaik it's just an updated version of the old Syntorchestra with a more modern look, a longer keyboard, pitch bender, L.F.O. w/three sliders for speed, vibrato depth and V.C.F. and and a few extra presets. Anyway, according to Peter Forrest's A-Z synth books it doesn't have much character compared with the original syntorchestra.
